I have already worked on this last summer. It's still a prototype but not to far from a usable solution

I will try this....
for the moment I simulate a parent rename to retrieve the children as subnodes of the parent. I think it's the only way ...
I have used this many times when I had to populate the group for moving or rotating my design...

Interesting. It's more involved than what I was suggesting, but more useful too.

It kind of reminds me of gramps, a FOSS genealogy software. :)
